Sammanfattning

A grafting of N-1-(3-trimethoxysilylpropyl)diethylenetriamine (TMSPDETA) on natural clay was carried out to obtain an organic-inorganic hybrid clay material that was applied as an adsorbent to the uptake of Reactive Blue 19 (RB-19) and Reactive Green 19 (RG-19) dyes from aqueous wastewaters. This research demonstrates the effect of TMSPDETA contents on amino-functionalized clay materials' hydrophobic/hydrophilic behavior. The resultant material was utilized to uptake reactive dyes in aqueous solutions. The clay@TMSPDETA hybrid material was characterized by isotherm of adsorption and desorption of nitrogen, FTIR, elemental analysis, TGA, pHpzc, total acidity, total basicity groups, and hydrophilic balance. The hybrid samples were more hydrophilic than the pristine clay for ratios from 0.1 up to 0.5 due to adding amino groups to the pristine clay. FTIR spectra suggest that TMSPDETA was grafted onto the clay. The hybrid material presents a surface area 2.17-fold (42.7 m(2)/g) lower than pristine clay (92.7 m(2)/g). The total volume of pores of hybrid material was 0.0822 cm(3)/g, and the pristine clay material was 0.127 cm(3)/g, corresponding to a diminution of the total pore volume (V-tot) of 1.54 times. The kinetic data followed the pseudo-second-order (PSO) model for RB-19 and RG-19 reactive dyes. The equilibrium data were better fitted to the Liu isotherm model, displaying a Q(max) as 178.8 and 361.1 mg g(-1) for RB-19 and RG-19, respectively, at 20.0 & DEG;C. The main mechanism of interactions of the reactive dyes with the hybrid clay is electrostatic interaction. The clay@TMSPDETA has a very good effect on treating synthetic dye-textile wastewater. The removal percentage of simulated wastewater was up to 97.67% and 88.34% using distilled water and plastic industry wastewater as the solvents, respectively. The clay@TMSPDETA-0.1 could be recycled up to 5 cycles of adsorption and desorption of both dyes, attaining recoveries of 98.42% (RB-19) and 98.32% (RG-19) using 0.1 M HCl + 10% ethanol.
